You scored as The Teardrop Explodes.

Liverpool’s The Teardrop Explodes were one of the few post-punk band to achieve commercial success, with their eccentric front-man Julian Cope becoming an unlikely pin up in the early 80s. Their music was often called ‘neo-psychedelic’ due to their sixties sound and Cope’s surreal lyrics, best heard on 1980’s classic ‘Kilimanjaro’.

You scored as The Fall.

Manchester’s The Fall are one of the most prolific and enduring of the original post-punk bands. Mark E. Smith’s surrealist rants and idiosyncratic brand of ‘Country & Northern’ continue to command a large cult following, their debut, 1979’s ‘Live at the Witch trials’ is as good a place to start as any.
